Abstract
No formal abstract is given. The prefaces states, This report summarizes aspects of the offshore and onshore geology of the Eel River Basin, California, that are of importance in assessing the potential geological hazards to offshore petroleum exploration and development. Although these investigations focus on the identification and characterization of potential hazards in specific offshore basins, they should be considered regional in scope. They are designed to provide broad geological perspective in these areas, to be used as an adjunct to site-specific geohazards studies. The geologic phenomena investigated include faulting, seismicity, seafloor instability (e.g., submarine slides and flows), seafloor erosion and deposition, hydrocarbon seepage, hydrocarbon gases and hydrates in seafloor sediments, and diapirism.
